Motherwell have appointed Steven Hammell as their new manager on a two-year contract, with Brian Kerr named as his assistant.
Hammell, 40, is the Steelmen's post-war record appearance holder and had been in interim charge of the team following the departure of Graham Alexander.
Chairman Jim McMahon told the club website said: "We ran a very robust process that started with over 70 applicants. We met last weekend to narrow that down to a final three and we spent time interviewing them over the last few days.
"All three candidates were impressive, and each brought their own positives, but Steven was the unanimous pick of the directors and Well Society board members who sat on the panel."
